During my soccer game yesterday this girl dug her acrylic nail into my skin on my leg?

but she didnt cut the skin, she just made a large abbrasian the line is just a simple scartch but is about 4 inches long. its really red not swelling or anything what should i do about that . the same girl also kneed me right under the scratch when we were going up for the ball. i didnt go down cause i didnt really think of it , but now its sore. feels like theres a knot there and feels like the muscles are streatching when i walk. its not excrutiating pain but hurts a little. is it the possible that muscles or ligaments could be torn or stretched?


if so what can i do to heal these and what can i do to stop the aching. thanksDuring my soccer game yesterday this girl dug her acrylic nail into my skin on my leg?
acrylic nail scratch - all it is is bruisng from the nail. the sharp end bruised the muscle even though the skin didnt break. it should heal in a few days.





kick to shin - bruising your muscles causes swelling and pain. simply ice it. the swelling should go down in the next few days and then youll just have a bruise.





evil girl who did this to you - give her a taste of your own medicine! lol just kidding.





good luck! :DDuring my soccer game yesterday this girl dug her acrylic nail into my skin on my leg?
Wash the scratch and put on some bacitracin ointment. The knot is a bruise, ice it.
For the scratch, put some neosporin and a band-aid to make sure it doesn't get infected.





For the knee, Acetaminophen might help the pain. I don't think you have a torn ligament, but I recommend not moving it. Ice might help too, but uh, no soccer.
for the scratch-just let it heal on it's own. since it didn't break the skin, you should heal up pretty quick





as for the muscle soreness, try alternating heat with ice. the ice will help reduce the swelling and the heat will relax the sore, tight muscles. apply an ice bag for 10-15 mins then in a few hours, use the heat instead (for 10-15 mins). this should help you feel better. do this at least twice a day for each.





if not allergic to it, take ibuprofen for pain. it has an anti-inflammatory in it to help reduce swelling. take 200-400mg every 6 hours as needed but no more than 1200mg in 24 hours.





the knot you are possibly feeling is more than likey a bruise underneath the skin and it should start to decrease in size over the next few days. if it doesn't then i would make an appt just to have it checked out by your dr.





hope this helps!!
